The Branch has undertaken to supply a bookcase and stock it with books for a family who will move into their new home in June. The home is a project of Fort Bend Habitat for Humanity.
AAUW Fort Bend has a long history of supporting literacy and literacy efforts and now we want to support this family in this new chapter in their lives.
